An Active Community Service Organization
In addition to the social opportunities it offers, the Arlington Garden Club is active in the local communities where our members live.
Our volunteers, which currently total approximately 100 members, work hard throughout the year on fundraising events to support local programs. In the last 10 years (since 2015), for example, we have provided:
- $35,500 in scholarships to local youth.
- $29,000 to school FFA programs, food banks, and horticulture and environmental organizations.
Read more about our two major fundraising events, the Holiday Garden Art and Crafts and the Annual Plant Sale.
